These children, or Kinder in German, were taken into foster homes and hostels in Britain, expecting eventually to be reunited with their parents. The majority of them never saw their families again. Written and directed by Mark Jonathan Harris, produced by Deborah Oppenheimer, narrated by Judi Dench, and made with the cooperation of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, it utilized rare and extensive footage, photographs, and artifacts, and is told in the words of the child survivors, rescuers, parents, and foster parents. ## Credits - **Director:** [Mark Jonathan Harris](https://cinepixo.com/people/mark-jonathan-harris) - **Screenplay:** [Mark Jonathan Harris](https://cinepixo.com/people/mark-jonathan-harris) - **Original Music Composer:** [Lee Holdridge](https://cinepixo.com/people/lee-holdridge) - **Producer:** [Deborah Oppenheimer](https://cinepixo.com/people/deborah-oppenheimer) - **Editor:** [Kate Amend](https://cinepixo.com/people/kate-amend) ## Cast - [Judi Dench](https://cinepixo.com/people/judi-dench) ## Criticism on CinePixo No reviews published yet.
